Waiting time 100 years.
Pretty sure the waiting time is a lot longer. The 100 signifies the 100th anniversary of Le Mans, and only 100 were made.

Platinum Daytona is pretty obtainable. I did not have to wait long for one. Not many people out there willing to spend $75-80k on a watch (AD prices). It's the stainless models which are actually more difficult to get from an AD. Then of course the off catalog pieces like the Rainbow, which go to VIPs only... I have one

The Le Mans Daytonas were already issued to people Rolex had in mind at release. They have since decided to resell theirs for as high as $400,000 when they were first released, and now settling around $200,000 in the grey market.

Le Mans is not LE. I have been on the AD list in Berlin since June 11th. In Germany it currently costs €52,500 including tax.
The Snoopy I ordered will certainly arrive sooner.

The initial 100 were, especially the first 2. They are producing them for the masses but different serial #.

Wearing one of my dad’s watches today. Not really my style as it’s a bit of an old man watch lol, but I must say I really like the way the 36mm fits my smaller wrist more so than the 41mm I usually wear.

I've had my Daytona Cosmograph since 1973. Wore it to work regularly in my career from the late 70's to early 90's. Pretty much stopped after the Rolex Brand got popularized in music videos. Was also told after my last servicing, that oem parts were very hard to find for this model. Then, was offered cash and a trade, so that could have just been an attempt to make me fall for their deal. Will likely pass it along to my son.

What an incredible piece! Ref. 6262? Apparently not a big seller when it was released in the 70s... making it now one of the rarest watches!

It's actually a 1967 Rolex Daytona, Ref. 6239. Got it during my Military Assignment in Germany. Was there as one of the last Lottery Draftees of 72-73. With the exception of the 73 Oil Embargo, it was a great Tour of Duty.
